Adult Night Out

So as a general rule I’ve liked the food at Ruby Tuesdays pretty well and I loved their salad bar, but I personally won’t be back due to a stupid choice they’ve made in regards to… vinegar. They no longer carry any vinegar (which i use on salad and fries) of any variety other than balsalmic, which any lover of vinegar can tell you is sweet not sour. This is a double dumb because they keep balsalmic and olive oil on the salad bar for salads… and also balsalmic vinegarette. /facepalm.

Your’re a burger joint with fries who doesn’t carry the cheapest condiment on the face of the planet in any of its three common varieties. Derp. Off to fridays next time i guess.

So im live blogging from the new wing warehouse location in louisville, its nice volume but pretty busy the food so far is as good as the other locations.

The first impression that I had was that the tables were really small. We had a party of seven and it seemed like we had to take turns moving our arms. We had a good waitress but there were several times that the service just seemed to lag. The restaurant was pretty full. A big problem arose when the table ordered 3 steak meals and we were informed that they only had two to cook for us. I had the lobster bisque soup. It was good but it was cold in the middle. I cannot remember the exact name of the chicken dish that I had. It was a grilled chicken breast in a white cream sauce with capers over the top of mashed potatoes. It was okay. I think I make better chicken at home. My scoring is: Decor: 4 Food Service: 2 Cost:3 Food:2 Overall: 2.75 for other reviews go to www.adultnightout.org

If you want to get away from the traditional Belden Villiage mass marketed chain restaurant, Cibos is the place to go. Housed in an old theater and having the kitchen run by a gaggle of old italian grandmas is the way to do it. It is true that you have to like italian food and you also have to like italian food the old fashioned way. My husband and I shared the Cibos Dinner, which is more that enough for two people at a low price of $25.95. We had rolls with butter, beverages, cheesesticks, one bowl of soup, one bowl of salad, lasagna, meat ravioli, cheese ravioli, spaghetti, rigatoni, cavatelli, chicken, baked steak, veal parmesean and an eclair. We had plenty to eat and still took some home in a box. Most of the fried foods are pretty plain and nothing special but the prices are low and the servings are huge. The taste of homemade pasta isn’t something that you can get just anywhere any more. It alone is probably what I likes the best.

Let me start off by saying that I’m not that big a fan of Italian food, so you’re probably safer completely ignoring this here review. And now that I’ve gone through the routine of getting any reader to ignore what I have to say so that I can write in peace, here’s my review of Cibo’s:
